finally all caught up. i just spent the last hour catching up on 18 pages of this thread and im excited to say...im game!

i live in pa, about 50 miles from pottsville. i prolly wont be able to make it there if anything happens, but its cool knowing that. but if we absolutely need someone to get there i should be able to find a way.

i didnt follow pg1 but i was a lurker during ILB and im hoping this can be my first actual ARG. where i am an actual contributor to anything productive.

welcome to PG2, loismustdie!

Good timing getting on board, as I really think this Saturday (or possibly tomorrow, depending on what date you think will really be the first new spark) will be the true start of the game. You're in at the ground floor, baby! Smile

But after playing PG1 (a none-too-technical, but innovative game), I can pretty much assure you that if you liked ILB, you will also like PG2. If it's anything like the first one, it will be good with the story, and great with fun and interesting puzzle ideas. (Sorry PM, if I'm adding too much pressure here. Laughing

) I still think the whole "key" system (see the archive for Project Gateway for the details on how that whole thing worked) was really a great and inventive one! Anyway, I'm rambling now. Enjoy the game, and we're glad to have you with us on this one!

Wow, gatecrashers, beekeepers, ARG newbies... and me and nos. I suppose I'm the only one who jumped over from PXC. (Still playing PXC, but this one seems more puzzle-solvey, so I'm in) In all the excitment yesterday, I almost missed the release of the new Coheed and Cambria album. That's saying something.

the Metaurchins were the players of the ARG 'Metacortechs' based on the Matrix universe.

Meta is anything derived from a subject. For example, a "[META][PG2]" thread would be a thread about something not necessarily in game, but still relating to the game in some way.

Metaurchins is the name the Metacortechs players gave themselves, after a puzzle in the game used "urchins" (or was it "urchin?" oh, memory) as a password solution.
